Eyewitnesses claimed the singer "got really aggressive, and kept being like ‘I’m Shannon Noll, let me back into the Crazy Horse’, and punched a security guard. Then four policemen pinned him down and took him away in a police car.”

He was charged with one basic count of assault that has now been dropped.
